Fugio Friday: 23rd February 2018

Happy Fugio Friday!

I’m currently in Belfast having just given a talk for the Northern Ireland Science Festival.

Check out this cool patch that uses your webcam to create two areas on the screen that act like buttons, which you can use to trigger off whatever you like! Yes, I know my hand is blue – I’m working on that… It’s available under the Video Capture examples in the File menu.

The latest development builds are available for download with new command line options for controlling the loading of plugins.

You can install the snap build using the following:

snap install --edge fugio --devmode

NEW: Command Line Options (see below for examples)

NEW: Experimental Linux snap builds for i386, x64, and armhf

NEW: Core/ProcessClick node

NEW: Two Video Buttons and Multiple AND examples

UPDATE: OpenCV/CountNonZero accepts a Region Of Interest (ROI)

FIXED: Kinect wasn’t working properly after image changes

Command Line Options

The new command line options for Fugio allow you to enable or disable plugin loading, set the OpenGL backed, set the language, and define variables for plugins.

The path to the Fugio or FugioShow executable is different on each platform:
